Mutational analysis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) accessory genes: requirement of a site in the nef gene for HIV-1 replication in activated CD4+ T cells in vitro and in vivo.

Kawano, Y, Tanaka, Y, Misawa, N, Tanaka, R, Kira, J I, Kimura, T, ...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) accessory genes including nef, vif, and vpr are important factors that determine the replication and pathogenesis of HIV-1. The state of activation is also...

In vitro analysis of the glucose-transport system in GLUT4-null skeletal muscle.

Ryder, J W, Kawano, Y, Chibalin, A V, Rincón, J, Tsao, T S, Stenbit, A E, ...

We have characterized the glucose-transport system in soleus muscle from female GLUT4-null mice to determine whether GLUT1, 3 or 5 account for insulin-stimulated glucose-transport activity. Insulin...

Phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance studies on the effect of duration of contraction in bull-frog skeletal muscles.

Kawano, Y, Tanokura, M, Yamada, K

1. Contraction and recovery of bull-frog skeletal muscles were studied using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), with a time resolution of 16 s, at 4 degrees C. The muscles were stimulated...

Regulation of human IgG subclass production by cytokines: human IgG subclass production enhanced differentially by interleukin-6.

Kawano, Y, Noma, T, Kou, K, Yoshizawa, I, Yata, J

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) stimulated with pokeweed mitogen (PWM) produced increased IgG when cultured with interleukin-6 (IL-6). IgG subclass analysis showed that the presence of IL-6...

Role of interleukin-2 and interferon-gamma in inducing production of IgG subclasses in lymphocytes of human newborns.

Kawano, Y, Noma, T

Unlike lymphocytes from adults, lymphocytes from cord blood of neonates cannot synthesize immunoglobulin G (IgG) in response to pokeweed mitogen (PWM). By using this mitogen in concert with...

ST segment elevation in the right precordial leads following administration of class Ic antiarrhythmic drugs
